WHO WE ARE

UK Telescopes, Our aim is to provide you with the right telescope at the right price, whilst offering a good range of accessories and combination packages at competitive rates. We believe our telescopes represent high levels of manufacturing specification from well-established sources and all incorporate features we believe will used with ‘best practice’, and genuinely enhance your viewing experience; this means, for example, no promises of startlingly high magnification that in reality cannot easily sustain a reasonable image.

Our online shop offers the opportunity to choose from a veritable feast of instruments designed and manufactured by industry leaders to bring you into closer contact with the night sky. Our range of telescopes includes all the popular models you would expect including Refractor telescope, reflector telescope, Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope, and Dobsonian telescope (for complete beginners, to whom these telescope labels probably mean nothing, please click on the link – BEGINNERS GUIDE TO TELESCOPES button and all will be revealed!). In addition to the astronomical telescope, we offer a comprehensive selection of accessories: mounts, eyepieces and filters, binoculars, cameras, star charts, red-light torches, and many other items too numerous to mention here.

We have built this website with one priority in mind; ease and speed of use.
